Why should you join our friendly dieting community?
Do you want to lose 5, 10, 15 pounds and just can't make it happen?
Need to get ready for a wedding or beach vacation? Maybe it's leftover baby weight
or perhaps it's a beer belly (which brewed up in college). No matter
where the weight came from, we can help you take it off. We are not here to sell
you anything - we promise & it's all free. All we do is put a
wealth of weight-loss information at your finger tips, give you access to experts,
fun weight-loss information, tracking tools, easy to follow meal plans, plus a
rock-strong community of other dieters to offer cheerleading, and best of all, friendship.
You have nothing to lose, except for that extra weight, of course.

A Nutritionist Weighs in...
If you are a fan of Richard Simmons, this is the diet for you. The cartoon-like website may seem a little corny, but if can get past the "fantasy-land" décor, then there is definitely a lot of useful information concerning diet and exercise.
The meal plans are low in calories and fat, but may get boring after a while. Though the meals are nothing incredibly creative or special, they do make realistic recommendations for healthy and low calorie choices. Some recipes suggest the use of too many processed and "fat free" products that contain unhealthy chemicals. You would be better off avoiding these foods or replacing them with healthier alternatives.
Be warned - the website constantly attempts to take your money! Beyond the initial fee and monthly charges, there are constant sales pitches that encourage you to buy products from the online store.
This plan can work for anyone (who is a Richard Simmons fan)
This plan can be applied practically to the lifestyles of many dieters. It is well organized and can be modified for both men and women, whereas many other plans only take one gender into account. It aims to make reasonable suggestions based upon individuals' specific needs, no matter what their current weight or activity level.
You do need Internet access to stay on this plan (at least in the beginning) and also must consider the monthly subscription fees. Unlike many other online diet plans, this does not offer access to nutrition professionals who can answer questions or give advice.
